Mon, 20 Feb 2012 13:48:48 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=278298#comment-1585380Well, if he wants to be a broadcaster, where else would he go? It’s not like there are a lot of options. Maybe Indy’s local Comcast outlet? ESPN is a bunch of idiots. Getting rid of Jaws and his rich analysis will prove to be a mistake when Gruden shows that he can’t carry 50% of the show with weak analysis and an unwillingness to criticize players or teams because he is focused only on that next coaching job. I like Gruden’s work with the pre-draft QBs, breaking down their style and mechanics and thought processes. However, Jaws is the consumate pro. He puts in the time, and there are few better at breaking down in-game strategy and slowing it down so that viewers understand exactly what’s going on and why. Big, big mistake. Got rid of the wrong guy.

Mon, 20 Feb 2012 13:15:50 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=278298#comment-1585363I don’t get why people think that just because a player had success in his pro career that he’d be a great coach. SO not true. The best coaches usually did not play professionally or were scrubs. There are reasons for that.
And if he goes into the booth, I will have to find a radio broadcast. Ugh.

Mon, 20 Feb 2012 11:14:21 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=278298#comment-1585316The real problem would be that Peyton would be running around in the booth, pointing at the producer, yelling at Tirico, etc. before every play. And every time Gruden slurps a player, you’d hear “God dammit, John!” and ESPN would be paying a fine to the FCC.

Whether you kept Jaws or not, I wish someone would be fool enough to hire Gruden as a coach, so that I wouldn’t have to listen to him every week.

In a certain Frankenstein-ish bobble head doll way, I agree…

He also has a bit of the Manning Mushmouth so I am not sure that he would be successful on tv…

What modern day, millionaire, A-list athlete has ever gone into coaching? He’ll be in the booth, where he can work 25% of the week, 20 weeks a year.

Manning has long had a very effective screen presence, and any network will have to pay top dollar for him. Top dollar = top dawg.

Mon, 20 Feb 2012 00:49:30 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=278298#comment-1585071The Kravitz-Manning situation reminded me of a similar situation in 1994: Phil Simms had shoulder surgery and Will McDonough was reporting he was all done – Simms was furious and denied it even when the Giants released him.
Simms said he could still play and McDonough said he was done. When Simms took a job at ESPN he was still insisting McDonough was wrong and McDonough insisted Simms couldn’t throw the ball.
This story just adds the ESPN element to the situation.

Because even though, individually, they aren’t as good as Jaworski, when you add up the talent of the McCowns as a group, they come close to replicating one person who can pass for a legitimate NFL announcer.

Sun, 19 Feb 2012 23:55:22 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=278298#comment-1585020Why is it so difficult for the Monday Night Football powers to select a good broadcasting crew? It’s because Meredith, Gifford and Cosell set the standard too dang high. They are constantly trying to find that magical combination and will always fall short. With the list of former announcers that includes names like Tony Kornheiser, Dennis Miller and Mike Greenberg, it’s obvious that the next person to be fired should be the Producer.

Sun, 19 Feb 2012 23:54:16 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=278298#comment-1585015The good news is that we’re guaranteed to get some real news on Manning by March 8, the day the Colts owe him $28 million. The bad news is that if you don’t like this kind of offseason speculation, you’ve still got more than six months to wait before the real football starts again.
—————————————————–

The REALLY good news is that, unlike last season, we know FOR SURE that there will be real football in six months.

How much do you think Manning would have to be paid to get him into the studio? No network will fork over that kind of loot for a guy to do regional broadcasts. Whether he deserves it based on ability or not, anyone that hires him will force him into the role simply based on salary.

Worst case scenario, he can’t be as bad as Kornheiser.
